I get a nouveau driver error each time.
Maybe it comes standard with Ubuntu? I don't really know.
I followed the guidance of x3lectric

I was trying to find out why Dharma Live wasn't working out of the box.
I maybe need to mention that I already succeeded in installing XBMC previously.
I followed the mini guide and applied it on Ubuntu 10.04.1.
To be able to boot I need to set nouveau.modeset=0 in grub or else I get a pointer bit failed error.
from there on I followed the XBMCbuntu guide

Everything worked like a charm and even with LIRC.
The only thing I was looking for is the xbmc plymouth theme.
So I assure you that there is no hardware problem.
Windows 7 installed perfectly on it by the way.
I was just trying to find out why XBMC Live Dharma wouldn't work out of the box.
I know my original post [LINUX] Nvidia or ATI GPU has gone a whole different way.
But because of having these problems I was wondering if I could try ATI or another Nvidia card.
I really want to find out why Dharma Live doesn't work out of the box.
And maybe there are others with problems which I hope to help once I found the problem.
Maybe I can try some things which you could have in mind to solve this.
